HENSOLDT Maintains Growth Trajectory in Early 2025

HENSOLDT AG has sustained its growth momentum in the first nine months of 2025, witnessing significant rises in order intake, backlog, and revenue. The order intake increased to EUR 2,017 million from the previous year's EUR 1,856 million, while the order backlog reached EUR 7,096 million, up from EUR 6,513 million. Revenue climbed to EUR 1,536 million, compared to EUR 1,377 million last year. Adjusted EBITDA rose to EUR 211 million with a slight margin improvement to 13.7%.

Driven by increased defense spending across Germany and Europe, HENSOLDT continues to consolidate its market position. The Sensors and Optronics segments contributed substantially, highlighted by contract extensions and retrofitting projects. CEO Oliver Dörre emphasized the growing impact of European defense initiatives and HENSOLDT's role in addressing rising demands efficiently.

The company anticipates further positive development in 2025, adjusting its outlook to reflect a book-to-bill ratio of 1.6x to 1.9x and revenue expectations of approximately EUR 2,500 million.
